Hungry Memphis

Hattie B's Opening Wednesday

Memphis, Hattie B's is coming for you. The Nashville-based hot chicken restaurant will open its first Memphis location at 596 Cooper in Cooper-Young across from Muddy's on Wednesday, April 18th.

Nick Bishop Jr., who owns the restaurant with his father Nick Sr., says the new space pays tribute to the old Easy-Way that was there. The checkerboard pattern on the wall reflects Easy-Way's old tile as well as the paper that lines the chicken baskets.

Bishop says there's a thrill in "taking something old and making it new."
